If that's the case, there's a good chance he jumps ship and leaves Florida with nothing. That's a risky proposition for Tallon, and while he says he isn't looking to trade Weiss, chances are he wouldn't admit it anyway.

As Murphy stated, the Bruins should be making a call to Tallon to see if Weiss is realistically available behind the scenes and if he is, the Bruins must make a play for the talented forward.

The Bruins are enjoying a successful start to the 2012-13 season as they sit in first place in the Northeast Division with a 6-1-1 record and 13 points overall as of Wednesday morning.

Scoring goals haven't been much of an issue for the Bruins this season. Their 2.8 goals per game is good enough for No. 14 in the NHL, and with stellar defense and goaltending, this team is incredibly talented on both sides of the ice.

Weiss would be a great addition to an already solid roster. The 29-year-old has excellent speed, which makes him an obvious threat to score goals, but his playmaker abilities as a passer are just as impressive and important to his game.

Granted, Weiss hasn't gotten off to a good start to the 2012-13 campaign. He is without a single goal and only two assists, but his career numbers prove that he can score 20 to 25 goals in a normal year and notch around 30 to 40 assists.

Where Weiss could make the biggest impact is on the Bruins power-play unit. Boston is ranked No. 28 in the NHL in that category, coming in at a lowly 10 percent success rate. Adding Weiss' scoring and passing abilities would no doubt bolster that glaring weakness.

It's still early in the year, so don't expect any trades of this magnitude to happen right away. But if the Panthers feel they won't have the means to sign him, the Bruins could have a golden opportunity to make their team even better than it already is.
